P2P Manifesto

O intercambio de arquivos nas de redes de pares, ou, como se acostuma a denominar, P2P, xa ten o seu propio "manifesto" que recolle os argumentos que o defenden (e nos defenden) fronte a aqueles que o consideran unha das "lacras da sociedade moderna" (paseime non?).

O autor do documento foi Marco Montemagno, profesor da "Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore de Milán.

P2P Manifesto Abstract:

P2P is a revolutionary technology. P2P is technically unstoppable.

Most of all, P2P is positive for companies, for the market and it’s good for users.
P2P has already proven to be an unbreakable technology.

Either server centralized systems or decentralized ones are evolving, improving every day, adding new features that
makes totally useless, as a matter of fact, both complaints issued by Majors and technical surveilling countermeasures.

Companies can benefit by P2P technology both for empowering their products distribution (products, content,
information, etc.) and for creating new kind of business.

Market has been refreshed by P2P, enlarging the number of players and the market size.

Users enjoy sharing all kind of information.

P2P technology is a natural choice for users: they have what they want when they want, without intermediation and
directly from the “info owner”.

File sharing is evolving to “social sharing” where individuals share all kind of social interesting information.

The swappers of today are becoming “file networkers”, individuals capable of creating large social networks that soon
will be - paradoxically - the most desired Majors' allied.

P2P will then soon become a more complex integrated system for sharing and networking (PnetP).

P2P is here to stay.
